MOOSE JAW — Radiant Skin Clinic invites you to celebrate International Women’s Day and support the Moose Jaw Transition House with a charity luncheon featuring live music, artists at work, swag bags, and a guest presentation by keynote speaker Darci Lang meant to uplift and empower women this winter.
The International Women’s Day charity luncheon will be held at The Grant Hall Hotel from 11 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 8.
“For us at Radiant, we’re a staff of women who primarily treat women as patients. We really believe that it’s important to straighten each other’s crowns rather than tear each other down,” said Amber Cameron, owner of Radiant Skin Clinic.
In a show of this support, Radiant Skin Clinic reached out to host the upcoming luncheon.
“It’s our 15-year anniversary for Radiant Skin Clinic, and to commemorate it, we wanted to host the charity luncheon,” she said. “So, we’re sponsoring the event and giving all proceeds to the Transition House.”
The luncheon will open with time to mingle until lunch is served at 11:30 a.m. Two Metis artists, Heather and Terri Murphy, will be doing a live artwork creation onsite to be auctioned off later in the day and each attendee will receive a $100 gift certificate to Radiant Skin Clinic.
“International Women’s Day is a global event celebrating women’s achievements and has been recognized in many different forms for over 100 years,” explained Jenn Angus, executive director of the Moose Jaw Transition House.
“It’s also a call to action to raise awareness of issues that continue to impact women today, such as domestic violence and gender inequalities,” she said. “Let’s all work together to create the kind of community where every woman and girl is valued and can live to their fullest potential.”
Proceeds raised for the Transition House will be used to “directly support women in our community through outreach programming and supporting empowerment through activities and resources that help build life skills for future success,” Angus confirmed.
Darci Lang is a renowned Canadian motivational speaker, award-winning entrepreneur, and best-selling author based in Regina, Sask. With over 30 years of experience encouraging individuals to concentrate on the positive aspects of their lives with her “focus on the 90 per cent” philosophy, Lang continues to deliver speeches, workshops, and help transform workplace cultures to boost morale, employee engagement, and profitability.
Lang’s presentation will begin after lunch from 12:30 p.m. until 2 p.m.
“She (Lang) tries to help people learn how to confront negativity, boost morale, and shift perspectives,” Cameron said. “I chose her because she’s amazing and she’s a good, dear friend of mine.”
The luncheon is meant to reach women from all walks and backgrounds.
“Overall, it’s just about women globally. It’s definitely not a businesswoman event,” Cameron explained. “It’s about women in all walks of life, and in all countries. We’ll have attendees from Ukraine, Nigeria…, and we’re trying to have a little bit of representation from around the world.
“The message is that women are important, and I think that we just need to remember that,” she said. “We wear a lot of hats, and it’s good to just, you know, pump each other’s tires.”
